I ran the Savin Rock, West Haven, CT, Half Marathon Course today at 8:10am.  The actual Half Marathon is March 19th.  There was 500 feet of elevation.  So some hills.  12.97 done in 9:40 in 2:05:22 at 148 bpm at 85% MHR.  From a HR perspective I will consider these MP miles (MP is 79-88% MHR).  My last run was last Sunday. 

So I only ran the 12.97 miles this week.  My new work schedule is throwing me off a bit.  So my current thinking is to run 6 milers Monday through Friday and a Long Run on Saturday.  And it would be best to do the weekday runs in the morning...I will see how I do with that.  For me, a bit difficult to get out there in the morning.  

Looking at the splits below: way off from how well I did at Colchester.  So I hope to do better during the actual race.  We will see.  A week off perhaps did not help matters.
